West Ham 3-1 FCSB

at London Stadium


WEST HAM ran out comfortable winners of this Europa Conference group game against Romanian side FCSB at the London Stadium, after a very shaky start.

The writing was on the wall after half an hour, with Darius Olaru and Andrei Cordea combining, only for the latter to head the ball into the grateful arms of home keeper Alphonse Areola.

Five minutes later, though, a move started by Florinel Coman saw the same two combine — only this time Cordea swept the ball home at the back post.
